Lightning-fast navigation

When you're ready to hit the road, there's nothing worse than waiting for your GPS to get going. Kenwood's DNX570HD navigation receiver features Insta-Search and Insta-Route, which find points of interest and routes five times faster than previous models, so you can start your journey without delay. It uses predictive text so you'll even save time typing in the name of your destination. You'll also get reliable routing from the experts at Garmin, plus a level of smartphone connectivity that'll let you take full advantage of your phone's features while allowing you to drive safely.

Stay connected with your phone

The DNX570HD is a smartphone lover's road companion, but it works in different ways for different devices:

iPhone®: With a separate cable, you'll get control of your Pandora® Internet radio, Aha Radio, and iHeartRadio apps through the receiver's touchscreen when connected. App Mode also gives you limited control over other select apps on your phone. The DNX570HD also offers compatibility with your iPhone's Siri® feature for select email, Bluetooth® calling, and iPod® commands.

Android™: You'll get control of your smartphone's Pandora, Aha Radio, and iHeartRadio apps through Bluetooth, so no cable needed. The Kenwood Music Control app also gives you easy search and playback functions of your Android phone's music through the receiver.

BlackBerry®: You'll get Pandora Internet radio app control through Bluetooth, so no cable needed.

Free built-in NAVTEQ traffic reports

NAVTEQ traffic information for major metropolitan areas comes with the DNX570HD, at no cost to you. You'll be able to see congestion along your route and find a way around it from the driver's seat.

Bluetooth for hands-free convenience

Built-in Bluetooth lets you make and take calls through the receiver via your compatible phone. When your iPhone's connected with a cable, the receiver will automatically send a pairing request to your phone — all you have to do is accept or deny the request. The Kenwood DNX570HD also supports wireless audio playback (AD2P) and control (AVRCP) of any Bluetooth enabled audio player or smartphone.

HD Radio™ tuner

The DNX570HD also features an HD Radio tuner. You'll enjoy much-improved AM/FM sound quality when you're tuned into a local participating station, and there's no subscription required — just tune it in like a regular radio station.

More audio and video options

This receiver will play all your CDs and DVDs, including discs loaded with music files, while two rear A/V inputs offer connections for more audio/video sources. You can plug your iPod or a thumb drive into the rear USB port, and enjoy all your favorite albums and playlists. No matter what you're listening to, Kenwood designed the DNX570HD to send a crisp, clear audio signal to your speakers, and you can use the 3-band parametric equalizer and other soundshaping tools to adjust the sound for your vehicle.

The high-resolution 6.1" WVGA screen is perfect for viewing video from DVDs or other sources when you're parked. You can tap into video content on your iPod or iPhone with the help of an iPod cable (not included). When you're on the road, you can play movies through a rear-seat monitor for your passengers. It's a great way to combat boredom on long road trips.

Expand your system

You can hook up a satellite radio tuner (not included) to the receiver and access the wide variety of entertainment, sports, news, and commercial-free music satellite radio provides. You can also connect a rear-view camera, so you can see what's behind you as you back out of a tight parking space. If you're looking to add amps and subs, you can take advantage of three sets of preamp outputs available, including a dedicated subwoofer output with low-pass filter and level control.

iDatalink Maestro lets you keep your SYNC features

If your Ford vehicle comes with factory SYNC features, you don't have to worry about losing your favorite conveniences to get navigation and better sound — the DNX570HD offers compatibility you won't find in many other aftermarket radios, thanks to the iDatalink Maestro module. For SYNC systems, you'll be able to retain voice-controlled features, steering wheel audio controls, and factory audio functions, plus enjoy expanded functionality including gauges, climate controls, a distance sensor, and tire pressure monitor. The DNX570HD will also be compatible with GM OnStar and Chrysler uConnect systems, with adapters from iDatalink coming soon.

Want to keep your car's steering wheel audio controls?

in an open area away from tall building and trees for fastest acquisition.
After the system acquires satellites for the first time, it will acquire
satellites quickly each time thereafter.

NAVTEQ Traffic: NAVTEQ Traffic receives traffic information
that is broadcast over the FM Radio Data System. The free FM TMC subscription
activates automatically after the navigation system acquires satellite signals
while receiving traffic signals from the service provider. NAVTEQ Traffic
provides real-time traffic data for over 90 major cities in North America,
including the United States and Canada. If traffic is congested up ahead or
there is a road closure, the navigation system will automatically re-navigate
the route to show you how to get to your destination, quickly and easily.
Alternatively, in manual mode, the system will add delay time to your trip so
you can decide to avoid or continue on your current route. When the unit is
receiving traffic information, a traffic icon appears in the upper-left corner
of the Map page. The traffic icon changes color to indicate the severity of
traffic conditions on your route or on the road you are currently traveling.

playing artist, a song list of the currently playing album, a artist list of
the currently playing genre, or a album list of currently playing composer.
You can also select Random & Repeat functions for a certain
song or specific folder.

iPod/App Control Mode: The iPod/App control mode allows
you to control stored audio/video content from your connected iPod/iPhone's
clickwheel or touchscreen. This is very useful for the person riding in your
passenger seat. The iPod/App mode also lets you listen to your favorite
music apps, such as
iHeartRadio,
SiriusXM,
Rhapsody, &
Slacker streamed to your iPhone (iOS 3.0+) through the Kenwood head
unit and your vehicle's speakers. You can even watch video on the Kenwood
navigation receiver's touchscreen from streaming movie apps, such as
Netflix& YouTube, downloaded on your iPhone 4/4S (iOS
4.0+), via the Kenwood KCA-IP202 iPod cable (sold separately). The App

iPod/iPhone's music file information when you are controlling your iPod or
iPhone from the Kenwood multimedia head unit. The head unit will display Track
number, Elapsed playing time, Artist name, Song title, and Album label. The unit
will also display Album Art. If you choose to operate your connected iPod/iPhone
in iPod/App Control Mode, the DNX570HD will not display your
iPod/iPhone's music information (the head unit will instead display 'iPhone App/iPod Control Mode + Parking Off').

Audio Section

MOSFET Amplifier: The Kenwood DNX570HD is equipped
with a MOSFET amplifier. Compared to conventional power supplies, the MOSFET
amplification circuit is smaller and more efficient, and it delivers increased
power with less distortion and absolutely zero on/off switching noise. More
power means louder and cleaner music at higher volumes because you're not
pushing the limits of the amplification circuit. The power output specs for the
DNX570HD are as follows:

6ch/2V Preamp Outputs: The DNX570HD features front, rear and
subwoofer 2.0-volt preamp outputs. The front and rear speaker preamp outputs are
balance and fade adjustable. The subwoofer preamp output is non-fading. The
front, rear, and subwoofer preamp outputs are fixed to the rear chassis of the
head unit.

Front & Rear High-Pass Filter: The DNX570HD features an
independent High-Pass Crossover for the front & rear channels when your front &
rear speakers are connected by the unit's speaker-outputs or preamp-outputs. You
can adjust the high-pass crossover from 'Through' (off), 40, 60, 80, 100, 120,
150, 180, or 220 Hz. The
"Through" selection is a full-range setting. This feature is very helpful when
you have smaller-type speakers in the front and larger-type speakers installed
in the rear of the vehicle.

Subwoofer Controls: The Kenwood DNX570HD offers the
following subwoofer controls, when you have the unit's subwoofer preamp output
activated.

Low Pass Filter: The receiver features a built-in Low
Pass Filter control for the preamp-output, when the output is set to
Subwoofer. You can select from 50, 60, 80, Hz, 100 Hz, 120 Hz, or 'Through'
(off).

Subwoofer Phase: You can adjust the phase of the
subwoofer output between 180-degrees (Reverse) or 0-degrees (Normal).

Subwoofer Level: Once the Subwoofer preamp output is
activated, you can independently control the subwoofer preamp output level
(-50 to +10) from the navigation receiver.

Speaker Type Setting: This feature tailors the DNX570HD
according to the type of front speakers in your vehicle. You may select Standard
(for speakers with a general diameter), Narrow (for speakers with a small
diameter), Middle (for speakers with a medium diameter), or Wide (for speakers
with a large diameter).

Preset EQ: Eight EQ curves are preset into memory, allowing
you to recall the best preset EQ curve for different types of music. Each preset
has its own level settings for bass (100Hz), midrange (1kHz), and treble
(12.5kHz). You can choose from the following preset EQ curves - Rock, Pops,
Easy, Top 40, Jazz, Natural, Flat, and User.

EQ Pro: The DNX570HD features independent Bass,
Treble, and Midrange control when the Preset EQ is in User mode. EQ Pro allows
you to adjust the following settings for the Bass, Treble and Mid frequency
levels.

Loudness: This function enhances low and high frequencies to
make the sound clearer lower volumes.

Volume Offset: The level of each source may be independently
adjusted to prevent radical leaps in output volume when switching from one
source to another. The available settings range from -8 to +6.

Dynamic Range: The dynamic range can be adjusted by selecting either
Normal, Wide or Dialog. Dialog makes the total sound volume become larger as
compared with Wide and Normal, allowing you to listen to the movie's dialogue
more clearly. This is effective only on Dolby Digital software.

Key Beep: The in-dash multimedia head unit provides an
audible beep to confirm button operation. This function can be turned On or Off.

Camera Input: The unit features a composite video input for
connecting an optional rear view camera, such as the Kenwood CMOS-210 (113CMOS210,
sold separately). The video from this connection can be set to display when
switched to this input, or display the rear view camera video automatically when
the vehicle is shifted into Reverse gear. The purple/white wire (attached to the
rear chassis) must be connected to the vehicle's reverse lamp circuit for
automatic video switching. Automatic video switching takes approximately 1.2
seconds. Audio from your music source will continue
playing, while the back-up camera is displayed.

A/V Output (with Dual Zone): The unit features a composite
video jack and 3.5mm audio jack to output A/V signals to an optional monitor and
headphone system. The unit's A/V output can be set to Disc, Video, iPod, or Off.
You can adjust the volume of the 2nd Zone independently from 0 to 35. You can
select between a 16:9, 4:3 LB, or 4:3 PS Aspect Ratio for the unit's video
output to match your connected monitor.

Note: You cannot select iPod as the A/V Output source
when you select Pandora as a main source in dual zone function.

OEM/Remote Control

Steering Wheel Remote Compatibility: The head unit features
an OEM steering wheel remote control input wire (blue/yellow) within the
included wiring harness that lets you keep your vehicle's factory radio steering
wheel remote controls when used with an optional
steering wheel audio control adapter (sold separately). Please consult
Crutchfield's
Outfit My Car to see if your vehicle is compatible.

OEM Integration: This Kenwood multimedia head unit is
compatible with the iDatalink Maestro RR (794ADSMRR,
sold separately); a web programmable module that will permit the aftermarket
Kenwood head unit to work with select Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles that
feature the factory SYNC system; as well as select GM vehicles with factory
OnStar. The iDatalink Maestro RR lets Ford or GM owners swap out their factory
radio for this aftermarket Kenwood multimedia head unit; while retaining the
Ford Sync system, GM OnStar, steering wheel controls, hands-free Bluetooth, USB
interface (Ford only), Satellite Radio, and 911 assist. You also get to keep the
hands-free mic that comes with the car (which is specially tuned to that
particular vehicle). In addition, the Kenwood multimedia head unit can be
configured to operate interior climate controls, distance and proximity sensors,
tire pressure sensors, and vehicle gauges such as engine temperature, RPM, and
other performance indicators (if factory equipped).

Ford Installation: The iDatalink Maestro RR module must first be
connected to your Windows PC via USB and "flashed" with the (SR)-FOR01-AS-US
firmware from iDatalink's
Weblink site, prior to installation. The iDatalink Maestro RR (MRR)
requires the use of the iDatalink Maestro ADS-HRN(SR)-FOR01 installation
harness (794HRNSRF1,
sold separately) when installed in your compatible Ford, Lincoln, Mercury
vehicle.

GM Installation: Coming soon.

Note: The Kenwood head unit features an OEM Setup menu that
must be configured with your Ford SYNC or GM OnStar factory system before
initial operation.

Optional Remote Control: The optional Kenwood KNA-RCDV331 IR wireless remote control
(113RCDV331,
sold separately) unit is designed to operate this Kenwood multimedia head unit.
The wireless remote controller operates off of two supplied "AAA"
batteries. The remote operates off of IR transmission so the KNA-RCDV331 must be
pointed at the front-panel of the Kenwood head unit within direct
line of sight.

I recenlly purchased 5 of these unit for my utlity van service fleet. I like that this unit combines gps,bluetooth, and rearview camera (camera sold sep) into the head unit. This removes the need to mount other devices to the windshield or sun visior. Our techs love the hands free technology and the expanded features above and beyond the factoey suppied head unit ie'''usb etc. Garman gps is flawless and is quick to respond. Booth tooth is fairly clear. The touch screen and menu funntions are very user friendly.

Can't complain too much

I've always been a fan of Kenwood head units and Garmin navigation. I needed a navigation setup for my car and this one was the right price at the right time. I didn't need super fancy bells and whistles - just a decent radio, CD/DVD, Navigation, and bluetooth phone support. This fit the bill nicely. Garmin Navigation is exactly that. The HDRadio is a nice touch - especially at this price and it works seamlessly with the standard radio. The interface is a little slow to start up, but after that it seems smooth but could be faster between functions. I haven't had any problems like other reviews have mentioned with freezing and lockups. Works as advertised even if the bluetooth setup does seem a little flaky at times. I don't use it often enough to really bother exchanging for another brand.

Pros:Easy to install and setup. Bluetooth handsfree telephone works great and the microphone seems good. HDRadio works great. Garmin Navigation.

Cons:Somewhat slow startup time. Bluetooth support for Pandora and iHeart seems a little flaky at times. The only REAL complaint I have with the navigation is that every 5-10 seconds it interrupts the radio and just beeps. For no reason it seems. Just stops the music...and beeps.

Awesome

My wife and I went on a trip and before going to it I installed this Kenwood in my car, it helped to do it, I can use my phone or my GPS but having this on the dashboard its just awesome, not only to navigate but to play music from my phone, you can also play movies but didn't want to get distracted while driving long distance.

Really nice head unit

Bought this as a refurb and it was DOA from Crutchfield. They quickly sent another at no cost to me and it worked like a charm. The Crutchfield installation kit was a lifesaver and this unit looks like it was made for the car. The GPS is great and bluetooth with an iPhone 5S is flawless. It's a champ with voice commands and will navigate my address book and make calls without taking my hands off the wheel. I listen to most of my music through USB so haven't really used any iPhone apps yet. Pandora seems to work okay but I'm just not a fan of internet radio.

Pros:Smooth installation. Bluetooth and Nav work great. Crutchfield service is impressive.

Cons:Refurb unit was DOA. Would have been nice if Kenwood tested it first.

Not too bad.

Installed into a 2005 C-Class Mercedes Benz, couple of notes. You'll have to tap into the power lines from the cigar lighter for switched power and illumination. Otherwise fits well with minor adjustments. The GPS is pretty accurate with lane positions and fast start up. Side note, if you want to adjust the brightness of the screen. Hold down the menu button on the touch screen and a hidden menu will show allowing you to adjust brightness, contrast and black level. You'll want to adjust for all three conditions; without lights on, with lights on and GPS mode.

Pros:Fast GPS, HD Radio and steering wheel controls with adapter.

Cons:Install cage is larger then expected. To use with iPhone 5 or newer change the AUX input to USB instead of iPod.

excellent head unit.

Does everything as advertised and more. Love the blue tooth capabilities. Using Pandora is a breeze. Nav is easy to use and works very well. Install with the kit from Crutchfield was a breeze. No regrets.

Pros:Everything is great

Cons:User manual could be a little more informative. But just play around and you can figure it out.

Does not work!

Had the dnx570hd for less than a year. It does not interface well with iPhone despite using kenwood cables. Was told to upgrade firmware. Did that and now I'm getting "GIR Low Mem" when I try to use the navigation. Searched forums this is a common problem!

Pros:Looks nice. Fancy features. All the right ideas just bad execution.

Cons:Navigation does not work. When you plug in the iPhone it assumes you want to play music. Garmin apps feature doesn't work for iPhone. Navigation when it used to work did not send any sound over speakers. Was told to connect additional external speaker.

Nice unit

This is a great unit. I installed it in a 2013 RAM 1500 in about 4 hours. The only caveat is the Bluetooth, however I believe it is the phone, not the unit and even at that it does connect. Also the phone is not listed. The gps is responsive and will peak instructions even when the cd or radio are working.. Sound is very good and easily tailored. I loaded a back ground picture into it and selected it as my screen. Overall very pleased with it. It is easy to use and once you learn the touch screen it is actually intuitively laid out and the main screen buttons are easy to hit while driving.The only down side is the scrolling menu at the bottom of the screen on the main menu. It could seriously use move left and move right arrows to scroll.

OK Receiver

This receiver is OK but for the price I wish it had more flexibility in changing the look besides just changing the background. Crutchfield support is a must, but as a rule there should be overall directions to help in each install. It is easy to get confused without them. One issue is that the steering wheel controls didn't work and they are sending me a replacement to hopefully fix it. I may have to contact Kenwood for a few setting issues but otherwise OK.

Kenwood DNX570HD

Purchased this unit because of the Kenwood name and the Garmin GPS. The support from Crutchfield was critical as the first unit had some flaws and a second unit had to be sent out. Getting everything to work took several calls to Crutchfield tech support and one call to Kenwood tech support. Now that it has been installed and used for several months, I can accurately assess the pros & cons. It seemed a good choice based on cost vs. features, but I would not buy this model again.

Pros:Unit looks great in the dash.
The Garmin GPS works well most of the time.
CD / DVD play is good.
FM sounds great.
Steering wheel controls work well.
The interface kits really matched up as promised.

Cons:The IPOD controls are marginal and songs skip at least once during play.
AM reception is just not good unless the station is really strong.
The unit freezes up occasionally - you have to turn the car off and on.
The Bluetooth controls sometimes lock up and you lose the touchscreen.
The initial setup is somewhat complicated and you have to be patient to get everything working.

Great System, Great Price

I purchased this in conjunction with a SiriusXM SXV200V1 Tuner and installed both in a 2004 Pontiac Vibe. I installed both products myself. Installation went great! Crutchfield does a great job of including the tools, and instructions you need to do it yourself. This deck looks great in my my 9 year old car. It fits perfectly and almost looks stock! My car is now updated with 2013 technology and I saved about $30,000 by not having to buy a new car!

I did a lot of online research before I settled on this model. It was a great balance of what I was looking for and the price was great, especially when I factored in all of installation extras that Crutchfield includes in the sale. You won't go wrong selecting this unit and purchasing it at Crutchfield.

All of the features seem to work great! I chose Kenwood over Pioneer because I have a portable Garmin which I love, and Kenwood features Garmin GPS Navigation so I didn't have to learn a new interface. The DVD feature is an added bonus, I doubt I will ever use it, but who knows. I set-up bluetooth with my phone and was able to make calls almost instantaneous. It was downloading my Contacts before I even knew it was doing it! The Garmin Navigation feature works just as I expected. I installed the SiriusXM SXV200V1 Tuner at the same time with the unit. The two work great together.

I really can't get over how great it looks and fits in my car. Thanks Crutchfield!

GREAT WOOD

Written By westoexpresso, Raleigh, NC on Friday, July 26, 2013

My first such purchase of a navigation head unit. Has everything I want and need. The blue tooth is flawless sounds like a direct connect (more than I expected) since I'm using an Android system phone. The interface is simple and has a easy short learning curve. The phone works and sounds great even downloaded my complete phone book which I didn't think my HTC EVO 4G was going to do. The navigation is spot on and has many features. The sound output could be a little stronger but my phone having the Dre Beats helps out with some added punch when using Pandora, Aha, or music stored on my phone. The usb works on command so I've got loads of musice from all types of sources i.e. Pandora, Aha, USB stored musice, and of course I got the SXV200 SiriusXM Connect Vehicle Tuner adaptor which give me the total Sirius XM package without any hiccups. The DVD's play clear but sound is a little low for my taste. All in all a fine first time purchase that was right in my price range. Recommend to all.

Great System and Crutchfiled is Great! Beware: Rebat is Ripoff

Installed in 2005 Ford Escape. Would have given 5 stars, but Kenwood rebate is ripoff. Crutchfield is wonderful - great support, included most accessories for free, free shipping; however, don't buy this based on the Kenwood Rebate - the rebate is awful. Kenwood makes you jump through hoops and still won't process rebate and they have HORRIBLE customer service. Now back to the unit - a little slow sometimes with the response to the touchscreen, but it is easy to use and understand the instructions. (Large fully detailed manual comes on a disc in pdf format (so you have to print before you can take to your car to try out features). It looks like a factory install in my car with the adaptor kit, but again, Kenwood customer service regarding the rebate is awful. Crutchfield is wonderful and I would highly recommend them

Pros:Looks like factory; Easy to Use; Great Features; Well worth the $$$

Cons:A little slow response time with touchscreen (but not always); full instruction manual on CD that can't be viewed on the system in the car; HORRIBLE KENWOOD REBATE

Nice but not great

I had the DNX6960 in the previous vehicle that I owned and was actually going to try another brand when purchasing for our current vehicle, when the rep at crutchfield talked me into staying with kenwood because they had dramatically improved their radios, so I did. Big mistake. Nothing has really changed about this radio from the previous models, except that it is a little faster at creating routes for you.

Pros:Fast routing on GPS, Nice Gui, Clear video. Easy installation.

Cons:Hard to make it allow you to change channels on the radio without trying to always go through the presets. Slow response time to buttons, even when trying to type in names of cities or places on the GPS, regardless of the speed of the navigation feature. No remote and very expensive. Bluetooth does not connect well with phones.

Great Unit

Falls short of my expectation

Written By nosordi, clovis, ca on Tuesday, June 04, 2013

So I bought this unit because it had all the features that I wanted. The Garmin nav was a plus. Garmin interface is very intuative and always best in class and easy to use. Voice dial recognition was excellent but the voice dial prompt was hard to hear at freeway speeds or if you have windows down. I hooked up backup camera and works flawless when in reverse. Now for my quips. When you turn it on it takes a while for the unit to load up and re-connect with your Ipod. If you backup the car too soon the backup cam engages and the unit will loose connection with your Ipod. So you have to turn the unit off and back on otherwise every time you have to sit there and wait until the unit syncs with your Ipod before you can back the car up. It takes a few minutes . Also the touch screen is a little quirky sometimes and won't pick up a function eventhough you finger is right on top of it and pressing down. But the biggest draw is the Ipod interface. There's no folder up or down function so you can't skip forward or back to the next artists. You are stuck with that artists until you search from the beginning again. If you were at artist V, you have to scroll down from artist A all over. Kenwood needed a back function to solve this issue. But the funny thing is if you hook up a thumb drive to the usb you can navigate in and out of the folders because it has that option with thumb drive. So I have disconnected my $250 Ipod and play music from a $20 32GB thumb drive. LOL

Awesome system

Absolutely awesome unit. Excellent sound even through factory speakers. Easy to use and Garmin Navigation......what more can I say. My other car has a Pioneer unit with TomTom Navi and it pales by comparison. Will switch the other car to Kenwood as soon as I can!

Pros:Ease of use, great sound and of course Garmin navigation. Very user friendly.

Great Sounding System!!!

This radio has tons of features and works great with my iPhone. The Bluetooth sync'd with my phone in seconds. Pandora and the other built in Apps are intergrated very nicely into the interface, making it easy to switch from one app to another. The Navigation is good with the Lifetime Traffic subscription, and also features LANE ASSIST, which is very helpful when traveling on unfamilar roads. SIRI works great too! it's activated by touching the TEL button for 2 seconds, or by touching the microphone icon in the phone App. I use SIRI to send and reply to txt messages. it's nice to have my messages read to me without even touching my phone.

I'm very happy with this purchase and the installation. Looks better then the OEM navigation system that came installed In my Mustang.

Pros:It's integration with the iPhone is almost transparent. Perfect Together!!!

TERRIBLE!

At first I was in love with this. The sound was crisp, the features were cool. Then I noticed that the clock was not working, never knew how important this was to me. Kenwood support told me that they are working on a fix. Next the receiver kept going into "protect mode" After hours of diagnosing the problem I find that this is a kenwood problem and not a problem with the connections as indicated by their support. Expensive piece of junk sitting in my new jeep.

Geat sounding unit

Written By LyleD, Atlanta, GA on Monday, March 18, 2013

Radio has excellent sound quality and GPS functions. The HD radio is automatic and sounds great. Replaced an OEM radio in 2011 VW and this unit much better. Installer added back up camera into unit. BlueTooth works great too and actually easier to use than the one that came with the car. I had a professional install. Make sure you get any conversion kits needed.

Pros:excellent sounding radio, lots of features. will work with Pandora. I would highly reccomend unit. has volume control nob on unit which I like blue tooth very easy to use

Cons:no real complaints.. takes a little while to understrand how to navigate the features but fore the most part you can figure it out pretty quick without manual

Decent Unit, hopefully they update

Bought this unit for my 2002 Infiniti QX4. GPS: works as you'd expect, its Garmin software, so its familiar to me having used Garmin portables before. unit occasionally hangs up while in Nav mode.

Audio: Seems good to me, im no audiophile, so as long as its clear and crisp im happy, i never mess with the equalizers or anything.

Sources: Only sources i use are USB in, CD, and the AM/FM. USB is great, bought a tiny 32gb usb stick and loaded all my music on it. the unit shows all my music divided into albums or folders. This unit really doesnt need the CD drive, as i have all my music on a usb, but it does also play DVDs so its good to have it. HD radio works great, first ive heard it, and it is definitely more clear and crisp.

User interface: seems decent. it does hang up or lag now and again, but really its only right after unit boots up. boot up time is about 15 seconds. Easy to navigate menus, and smooth scrolling

Bluetooth audio/handsfree: This is where i had an issue. the bluetooth did not work for me and my iphone 5 at first, wouldnt pair. but i figured out that during the "first use" settings, you have to set "OEM BLUETOOTH" to off, its an option located in the "OEM SETUP" when you first power unit. As long as that setting is off, my phone would pair.

So far i like the unit, it does what i need it to. Kenwood obviously has some software bugs to work out, but hopefully they update the firmware and get everything working smoothly.

Pros:looks decent, looks like it could be an OEM unit, not like it belongs in a Honda with glow lights everywhere. decent audio, HD radio built in, siriusXM ready, input for reverse camera, dual zone capability for rear seat monitors. Garmin Software, smooth UI, lots of source options.

Cons:Bluetooth issues. unless you have it set up just right, your phone will not pair. you must turn OEM BLUETOOTH setting to OFF. Unit occasionally freezes or lags.
